You may recognize one of Hollywood Hills’ newest residents as the former bandleader from “The Tonight Show With Jay Leno.” Ricky Minor bought his newly built home for $2.975 million, which was listed by Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices California Properties agents Rose Ware and Terry Canfield Schmidt of the Beverly Hills office.

The home features stunning contemporary design and large, open concept rooms throughout. The stylish home boasts 12-foot ceilings, walls of glass and wide-plank walnut floors. The chipped-glass fireplace, placed at almost eye-level in the family/media room, further adds to the sleek and contemporary feel.

When Minor is not enjoying his new 3,800 square foot home designed by Ecumena Design Studio he has a spacious yard containing a fire feature and swimming pool with a spa and fountain jets to relax or entertain in.

The 55-year-old composer, music director and producer is also known for his work on “American Idol,” “America’s Got Talent” and “Don’t Forget the Lyrics.”Beyonce, Whitney Houston and Christina Aguilera are just a few of the stars that Minor has toured with.
